When A President Isn’t A Criminal Propped Up By A Corrupt Supreme Court…

Canada, we’re with you! TRUMPISM IS REPUDIATED IN AUSTRALIA! #auspol

Nights of BLUE SKIES (sound) #MomSky DAY 3 MAY 2025 Representative Dan Goldman on the house floor "RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU DO NOT THINK THAT CHILDREN WITH CANCER WHO ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS SHOULD BE DEPORTED?" Not one Republican raised their hand Republicans. WHAT have you become?

The possibility that RFK Jr. is going to undermine herd immunity in the United States grows increasingly likely. This would mean that US will be responsible for starting numerous pandemics and potentially destroying the effectiveness of the entire globe’s vaccine arsenal. This is bioterrorism.

House Republicans have voted down a measure that would stop ICE from using federal resources to detain or deport U.S. citizens. Yes, I said U.S. CITIZENS.

(AP) — Detailed Army plans for a potential military parade on President Donald Trump’s birthday in June call for more than 6,600 soldiers, at least 150 vehicles, 50 helicopters, seven bands and possibly a couple thousand civilians, The Associated Press has learned. apnews.com/article/army...

Every. Damn. Day. Repubs top themselves with something worse than the day before. This here is the worst by a mile.

Think about this for a minute. time.com/7266334/us-h...

Swalwell says the House Judiciary republicans just voted to allow Trump to deport US Citizens. From IG:

I’m pretty sure all the astronomers already heard this bad news, but idk how many other folks know about this proposal—NASA science would be absolutely GUTTED if this passed. US astronomy & astrophysics would be dead. We can’t let this happen—tell your reps, & your friends! šŸ”­

Pardon?! Not catholic, but this is so wrong.

Stephen Miller to John Roberts on Fox News: "It is our opinion that Fox News needs to fire its pollster."

Sure seems like something we could describe as cancel culture

The media needs to call this what it is: This is a techno-oligarchic hostile takeover of the federal machinery of the United States of America. This is not governing. It is lawless. It is not based on principles of electoral representation. This is a criminal takeover of the federal government.

hahahahahahahaha www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

DOGE now involved in conducting criminal probes ā€œThe U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) assisted in this investigation.ā€ www.justice.gov/usao-ndny/pr...

Trump's EO calls for military and national security "assets" to be deployed on American streets to assist with law enforcement, and for the prosecution of local officials who talk about "DEI stuff" like the history of racist police violence. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Our Governor is the best!

Morale is in the toilet. The Trump administration’s months-long hunt to root out the resistance is ramping up. Investigations are intensifying, with polygraph tests being used to create a climate of fear and intimidation.

In an interview, @govpritzker.illinois.gov said ā€œif Dems reclaim a majority in the House, they should investigate the actions of Trump admin officials, including who accessed sensitive taxpayer data. ā€˜We’re going to hold ppl responsible. They can’t just get away w/what they’re doing right now.ā€™ā€

Yeah, he's not a fan and rightfully so.

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Every word of the NYT-bestselling Proof Trilogy, confirmed and proven exactly accurate by a Moscow Times report that cites multiple Kremlin sources. Trump Tower Moscow. Dmitriev. MBS. Rosneft. Saudi oil. It’s all here—and now the Kremlin no longer cares to deny it. More: sethabramson.substack.com

True... šŸ˜‚

No one should be above the law, most especially the President. Ignoring a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return isn't just cruel; it's unconstitutional. They're saying the quiet part aloud — if they get away with it now, they'll do it to anyone.

🚨 Clip of 47 meeting today at the WH with El Salvador's president, Nayib BurelĆ© Turn the volume up… it’s pieced together for certain commentary so the sound isn’t great… but when 47 says: ā€œ We’re going after ā€œhomegrown criminalsā€ nextā€ Who/What does that mean? #MomSky

Not surprising, but really disheartening.

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

ā€œThe Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.ā€ George Orwell, 1984

Best news of the day:

I find it outrageous as well.

In surpassing Strom Thurmond’s record, Cory Booker has toppled another Confederate monument. Kudos to you @booker.senate.gov.

Thank you Wisconsin šŸ†

The GQP goes after a tiny group of people like this, most of us think we won't be directly affected. But it is corroding to us all, & beyond harmful to people just being themselves. Why choose cruelty like this? Do not give into it. www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/04/gop-...

It’s like Watergate, only in this version Nixon directly mails the tapes to Woodward and Bernstein

I care deeply about who Michigan will elect as Governor and send to the U.S. Senate next year, but I have decided against competing in either race. I wrote more here about my decision and how I view the work required of us all in this moment:
